A Script for Cthulhu Live: Old Man of Damascus (3e)
 |
The Kingdom of Jerusalem in 1190 is in dire peril. Saladin's army has retaken Jerusalem. The crusader army is in tatters. The once-mighty Christian kingdoms of Palestine are crumbling.
In the easternmost provinces of the Christian kingdoms¸ the fortress of Li Vaux Moise has been under siege for three months. The defenders have tried to hold out¸ but the fortress is clearly about to fall¸ and the commander of the Muslim army has requested a meeting to discuss terms of the garrison's surrender.
But there are dark forces at work here far greater than any mortal army. Ancient evils from the wind-swept deserts stalk the stone walls¸ hungry for blood and power. Terrible¸ mind-shattering secrets from beyond the stars lie ripe to be exposed. Horrors beyond the comprehension of both Christian and Muslim threaten to devour them both ‐ or force them into an unlikely alliance.
